- The Osmonds are an American family music group who reached the height of their fame in the early to mid- 1970s. Currently consisting of a duo of original members Merrill Osmond and Jay Osmond, the group had its best-known configurations as a quartet (billed as the Osmond Brothers) and a quintet (as the Osmonds). The group has comprised siblings who are all members of a family of musicians from Ogden, Utah and have been in the public eye since the 1960s.
The Osmond Brothers began as a barbershop quartet consisting of brothers Alan, Wayne, Merrill and Jay. They were later joined by younger siblings Donny and Jimmy, both of whom enjoyed success as solo artists. With the addition of Donny, the group became known as the Osmonds; performing both as teen idols and as a soft rock band, their peak lasted from 1971 to 1975. Their only sister Marie, who rarely sang with her brothers at that time, launched a successful career in 1973, both as a solo artist and as Donny's duet partner. By 1976, the band was no longer producing hit singles; that year, they transitioned into television with Donny & Marie, a popular variety show that ran until 1979.
A revival of the original Osmond Brothers lineup in the 1980s achieved moderate success in country music, and both Donny and Marie separately made comebacks in their respective fields in the late-1980s. The Osmonds have sold over 77 million records worldwide. The quartet continued to perform through their 50th anniversary in 2007, at which point Alan and later Wayne retired due to health issues; Jimmy was recruited after Alan's retirement, with the group performing as a trio until Jimmy suffered a stroke and retired in 2018. Alan's son David Osmond performed with the group in 2019. On October 14, 2019, the original Osmond Brothers quartet reunited for CBS' The Talk for their sister Marie's 60th birthday, billed as the last appearance for the lineup. The brothers performed "The Last Chapter," written as a farewell song and introduced in 2018. Donny & Marie ended an 11-year Las Vegas residency on November 16, 2019. Merrill and Jay continue to perform and tour, as does Donny as a solo artist. - เพลง

One of my favorite songs of The Osmonds. Still love the voice of Merrill, after all these years
I got teased in a christian school because i loved the osmonds and there songs .i say, so what .they dont know the healing powers they had .just turn on there music. the harmonies and heartfelt songs that went in an lp .they all r good people with good hearts and minds
I think this is their best song! ✌🏻❤️
The Osmonds are great singers and Merrill has a great voice.I remember this song in 1972, when I was 6,my sister Leslie would play back then.Leslie passed away September,2017, was57.💐
The harmonies on this are amazing 😻
Yes I agree a beautiful song I remember in 1972, when I was 6
@@lisaparsons4124 lol me tooooo
Arguably the Osmonds’ greatest song.
I don't think I can argue with that!
Yes
Fullervision Enterprises , I totally agree with you - this song always makes me feel very emotional- it did so when I first heard at the age of 12 and now as a grandma well over the age of 60 - it still has the power to reduce me to tears. It is sung so beautifully and from the heart and so heart touching ♥️💞
Agreed
Love Me For A Reason is not far behind, imo!
50 years ago but unforgettable Osmonds but Donny is Donny my puppy love ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Wow, I haven't heard this for years. Feeling 14 all over again (but without the spots).
Grew up on this beautiful music, still here, still a huge fan of the whole family. Such talent!
The osmonds were a fantasic group,It is not right that they have not been inducted into the rock & roll hall of fame,as they are all currently still alive,Im sure most lovers of music would like this to happen.
what an abbasolutely wonderful idea.
i wonder it that will happen.
sure would be awesome if it happened whilst they are all still alive.
keep hoping and dreaming ,,,
love and peace to you and all,
xxxxxxx
Those harmonies!! Wonderful. I'm a teen in the 70s again 😢😊
Great song I remember in 1972, when I was 6

Still love the Osmonds. Im now 62
В далеких 70 услышала эти голоса в передаче "на всех широтах", вот на дворе 2023 и вновь слышу эти юношеские голоса... Опять, как много лет назад, я ещё юная девчонка с хвостиками на голове..., вся жизнь еще впереди, полная любви, романтики.. ... Спасибо...
❤❤
66 and still love them ❤
Same age as me. Loved them. Still do.
Me too❤I met them when they came to NZ❤One of the most unforgettable moments in my 66 years❤❤
What can I add that's not already been said? I could listen to The Osmonds every day never tire of hearing their beautiful harmonies or seeing their lovely faces
Just seen the stage show fabulous 👌 go see if your a fan...
Me too.
Love you let me in
Well said loved them..40yts❤
Great harmonies and the terrific voice of Merrill's, the Osmonds really were the business.
Such a lovely song. Love the Osmonds!❤
I miss them and their wonderful music, but I still play their greatest songs, the music of the time was simply AMAZING,ABSOLUTELY nothing like the RUBBISH we hear now.
Takes me back in time. Good on the day. 1972 the Osmonds.
One of the best music years ever.:. American Pie, Brandy (You're a Fine Girl), Everybody Plays the Fool, Precious and Few, Without You, Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress), and many more!
Greatest group of all time
well next to abba right?
lol
That was never 52 years just now! 😭
Beautiful harmonies ❤️ I still treasure my Jay autograph 💕
Easily my favourite Osmonds song, simply brilliant.
Exquisite vocal harmonies. Nothing like it ever. Absolutely incredible.
Takes siblings to do it imo
You can truly hear the Beatles influence in this song. The way Merril sings is very reminiscent of Paul McCartney. The Osmonds were really extremely talented and very underrated as singers, dancers, musicians, song writers and all around artists.
I can hear the Carpenters in this track as well.
@@nickhall5959I thought that too 👍👍
Wow... I love seeing Donny's face up close. Actually all of the Osmonds up close!!
Fantastic harmony
omg, no kidding. those harmonies are breathtakingly beautiful. i think in part because they are all family and already sound very similar. funny how that works in families.
but the dedication in practice that they did clearly shows in everything that they entertained us with.
this family is pure joy. such a treat to watch.
in a world filled with such garbage, especially in that industry, it is such a pleasure to see them all proceeding in love.
love and peace to you and all,
xxxxxxx
Brilliant song
In 1972 i was 13 and loved the Osmonds . Still listening now x
Merrills voice is amazing, but Donny is gorgeous, he has the most beautiful eyes
Yes loved Donny the most he was my Idol in the 70s x
Beautiful cool song
True to who they are. So authentic, thank God their authenticity is relevant today. Timeless Osmond’s.
Im 66 next month willalways love them
I LOVE THE OSMONDS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've loved the Osmonds for many years, and I love their songs, this song is one of my favorites. ❤
I love this song. It makes me think Papa God Jesus and Virgin Mary every step of my life. I never would have made it to 62 without the three of them. Thank you Osmond family for being such a big part of my life with your very beautiful music.
One of the true Boy bands - pretty much can play any instruments you throw at them ! Pure quality and musical genius 👌
I heard they add to teach their siblings the instruments because they couldn't afford music lessons for everyone. I'm not sure if each person taught one thing or how it worked
Such a beautiful love song. The Osmonds were under rated for their song writing. I wish they had switched around as lead singer too. Each of them had great voices, and it's a shame we didn't hear more of them.
Yes I agree the Osmonds are awesome singers, Merrill has a great voice to
My favorite Osmond song. Show tune quality.
Great song, Great band! Merrill is a Great singer! Love The Osmonds!
This song never gets old.
Almost 50 years since the release in 1973 and as moving as it was way back then!
My favorite Osmond song 💙🧡🖤💚💜
It's impossible for me to pick a favorite Osmond Brother song, as they've recorded hundreds, but "Let Me In" would be on my top 10 list !!!
The Osmonds started out as rock &Roll; go back and listen to the crazy horses, album, phase 3 album and the plan album!
The Osmonds rocked!
This song was playing on radio when I brought my beautiful son home from hospital after his father abandoned me before his birth 43 years ago, love it but it kills me!
Bitter sweet memories for sure. I hope you went on to find true love for yourself and a great step father for your precious boy 🙏.
@@Jannie- yes I did,thank you ,my son is wonderful!
@@veronicaking5247 fantastic! 🥰
I can't believe this song was 50 yrs ago i was 8 yrs old its still 1 of my favourite songs brings back so many cherished childhood memories 💔 my late sister and myself were obsessed with The Osmonds ❤️had posters covering are bedroom walls & wore badges🥰 Definitely my favourite blast from the past group and song ❤️what a voice Merrill & the band i loved Donny 😍 they had everything voices, beautiful harmonies and boy they could dance just LOVE The Osmonds ❤️
Same
Is one of my favourite song by the osmond s and my other favourite love for a reason
Lovely song by The Osmonds 🎶😍
I remember hearing this song about 5 years ago, and hadn't heard it for over 45years! What can I say, it brought back a thousand memories of when I was a child in the 70s.😢 I was in bits 😢😢
Beautiful song 🎵 ❤️
Love all the Osmond songs 🎵 ❤️ Merrill what a voice u have...Love the Osmonds...
very good group sang it like it was in the times this is fantastic enjoyed there songs so much better than todays songs x
LOVE THEM, LOVE THEM, LOVE THEM, ALWAYS AND FOREVER 💙🧡🖤💚💜😅
They are my favorite band
I was sooo in love with Donny,even found a boyfriend that looked quite like him ❤
Had this on lp as a child. I played it often, as a result, it's pops in to my head every now and then, but haven't listened to it since I was around 6 years old. Brilliant memories associated with the music, amazing lush vocals... thanks for the music, and the great teeth!
Unbelievable all this time has passed, yet the band and their songs can still hold up today.
Meeting them after a concert was one of the highlights of my life. They are brilliant live.
If there was one moment in the course of human history that merged two words ..."guilty" and "pleasure"... this was that moment.
Yes I'm listening. It's a proper goose bumps song.
Good old love songs. Good memories for me.
Gorgeous sound and faces. The Osmonds have it all.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You do know that they don't look or even sound like this now. They grew up and became old like all of us have or will.
@@chainamarie03 Yeah so. We all get old.
@@arinco6944 Isn't that what I said? Guess u don't comprehend English very well.
And teeth!! lol. ALl of them had great teeth in a period of time where the musicians showed their natural teeth, not fake.
i just love the Osmonds merrill always had that sexy raspy voice when he sings. i love how the guys would had texture and harmony to each one of there songs. Merrill and Donny were the 2 i had a massive Crush on when i saw them at Madison Square Garden in NYC when i was just 14 years old. and i am still there #1 fan today. i am 62 and have a 30 year old son who enjoys some of there famous hits as well.
Merrill enjoyed singing that you can tell!! ❤️❤️
Such beautiful harmonies. I've loved the Osmonds since I was 12 years old. I'm now 65 & I still love them. 😁💕
This song always gave me goose bumps! I always enjoyed music from the entire Osmond family, and this, along with "One Bad Apple", " Down By the Lazy River ", " Yo-Yo" were some of my favorites when I was a girl in the 1970's!
Moi aussi, je suis française et ils étaient venus en France pour 2 concerts qui ont marqué mon enfance de fille de 14 ans mais surtout Donny Osmonds
Don't forget crazy horses
That was my younger brothers favorite one!😊@@nickhall5959
Nice song. Donny's face is so natural and cute .Merril's voice is perfect.....
This song about letting the Lord Jesus Christ into our lives as our saviour. . Long live Merrill and the Osmond brothers . God bless XXX 🙏
Merrill what a voice 😍....Beautiful song 🎵 Osmonds are the best
A masterpiece. What sounds like a love song and is actually a song of repentance. Two meanings for the price of one. The Plan is a wonderful album. I wonder what the initial album would have sounded like had the scores not been destroyed in a fire whilst on tour.
A recent interview with Alan and Suzanne clarifies that this song is about returning to the Gospel and following the Savior. Not getting back together with a girlfriend.
I like that song sung by the Osmonds
Beautiful just beautiful 💟
Wayne was always my favorite, so cute.
Merrill is so underrated. The true soul of the Osmonds ❤️💫
Love this song by the Osmonds
I could which and listen to these guys all night, every night. Such talent,
Merrill Osmond was the glue of the Osmonds. What an incredible voice...even better than Donny
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG APART FROM BEING BRILLIANT SINGERS THEIR TEETH WERE THE EIGHT WONDER OF THE WORLD THE ONLY MAN MADE OBJECT APART FROM THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA THAT COULD BE SEEN FROM ANOTHER PLANET
Love the Osmond brothers
LOVE THE OSMONDS!
Beautiful song xxx i was nearly 7 when this came out xxx
A wholesome family who as far as I know married and remained faithful to their partners.
I was just 13 when I heard this beautiful words now I'm a gran & I still love it
I liked this song. One of my favorite Osmond songs. I was 12 years young back in 1972, when it was released.
You are the exact same age as Marie. Hard to believe that hot chick is now 62. Hard to believe Brooke Shields is 57
I was 10! I knew about them when I was 13; they immediately touched my heart.
Just seen the musical, absolutely fabulous!
Super chanson , j'ai toujours autant de plaisir à l'écouter
Just perfect 🥰
Donny is so incredibly gorgeous 💜💜sigh
I care not what anyone says., this is a fantastic song ! I loved it in '72, & I love it now. ---------RIP to all Osmonds who have passed. -------------MJL, 76 y/o
They all are still Alive!Alan the oldest of the performing brothers is 73 and has ms for a long time. Some of The brothers has health issues. Merrill is 69 and is going to retire this year! Donny and Marie are still performing.
@@moniquemeerhoff55 He may be referring to their Mom and Dad and didnt Marie lose a child??
Merrill had a truly amazing voice...they were great song writers and enthusiastic performers...and to my then adolescent self Donny looked so pretty 😭....he was my first crush I suppose, so has a special place in my heart (me and my sis went to see Donny in Glasgow UK a few years back; he was still able to rock with the best of 'em!)
Fabulous song, voices unbelievable ❤️🇮🇪❤️
Hello Wayne Jay donny merrily Alan Jay is the osmond brother the best music I ever had you guys sing
Cuando salió está canción yo tenía apenas 12 años estaba en sexto grado y estaba enamorada de Dony Osmond fue mi primer amor platónico todas sus canciones me gustaban tanto💞🤗😍💕🤷
Thank you! I love the Osmond’s
This is a damn good song.....
one of the great love songs
